BLAINE'S NEW HOPE.
Feeling His Way to tho White House
Through tho Question Of National
Defense.

AUGUSTA, ME-, February 15.-It
has leaked out that Mr.. Blaine is en-
deavoring to make personal and
party capital out of the coast de.
lenses and the increase Of the navy
questions.
Blaine believes that the country is
ripe for prompt action on the part of
Congress-, and he thinks that failure
to consent to comprehensive sys.
tenn of Notifications, as we'll as a
considerable enlargement of the
navy, will react on the Democratic
party. .....
With this idea in his mind he has
passed the word to his followers at
Washington to do all in their power
to cause that class of the Demo.
cratic Congressman who oppose lib.
eral appropriation to persevcre in
tller course. and to allow tho pro.
posed measures now before Congress
to go by default.

Serious Results Of Il Joke.

A few days ago young white man
named Curcton and colorcd man
named White, both butchers, impro-
vised II guessing match at the weight
Of COW and each backed his judg-
ment to the amount Of one dollar.
The stakes were placed in the hands
Of e. A. Carter. Mr.. Curcton won
and demanded his money, but MIR.
Carter declined to deliver it and
spoke OF having the parties prose.
cuted for betting, his purpose, he
says, being only to tease them. At
last warrant charging him with
breach Of trust was sworn out and
the case was heard by Justice Earle
on yesterday, w. A. Williams, ap.
pearing for the prosecution and j. Il.
Nix for the defense. After hearing
the evidence and and arguments the
Justice decided to send the case up
for trial. Mr.. Carter offered to hand
over the stakes if the prosecution
would Withdraw the case, and the
Trial Justice would remit the costs.
The prosecution was willing, but Mr..
Earle thought that rs the costs under
the new law 60 to the county, he had
no right to remit them, and the case
was sent up, the defendant giving
bail for his appearance.- GrcenviUe

Tho Increase In tho Consumption OF
Cotton.

The Financial Chronicle, which is
considered authority on all matters
relating to the cotton trade, presents
some facts regarding the consump.
ton of the staple which arc Of some
interest. The statistics prepared by
that publication indicate that the
consumption has materially in.
creased, and is now larger than it
has been in any previous year. The
growth in consumption in the past
ten years has been relatively much
more rapid in the Southern States.
In 1871 the consumption in the South
was reported at G3,000,00O pounds,
but in 1886 it was no less than 1856.
100000. The consumption in the
Northern mills has risen from about
537 100000 pounds in 1876 to 1856.
OOO,000 pounds in 1856. The in
crease in this country also has been
greater than in Great Britain or on the
Continent. Since 1878 the increase
in consumption in Great Britain has
been 20 per cent, on the Continent
10 per cent, and in the United
States II per cent. AS this coun-
try sends abroad quantity Of cot
ton goods not materially greater than
it exported, then this Increased per.
ccntago implies remarkable cxpan.
sion in the consuming power of our
people and in their consumption per
capita.

4 Eirst-ClasS Show,

The Democrat. heGrCGStie, Ind.
OF all the shows that have visited New
castle within the past ten years, there have
been none that attracted as large a number
of people to our town, or give such general
satisfaction in every respect than the great
worlds shows of Wallace * Co., that ex
hibited here May i, afternoon and evening
The weather was all that could be desired,
and AS early as o'clock in the morning
people from all parts OF the county flock ed
into town. The CircuS train arrived at /
o'clock and the crowds of people who lined
the main street, We're agreetDly surprised
at the magnitude of the concern. There
were tweuty-three open trucks and freight
cars containing cages of wild animals and
other paraphernalia of the great world 5
show, besides two handsome parlor sleeping
cars fitted up with every convenience for
the accommodation of the actors of the show.
The work Of unloading the animals and
erecting the mammoth tents occupied about
two hours, after which the public We're
treated TO the large st and most novel street
parade ever given by circus in Newcastle.
1t would require volume of space to fully
describe tie street pag mt, which represent
ed many new and original features us com
pared with the ordinary circus parade. The
procession was at least IA mile in length.
and contained more elegant chariots and
dens of wild animals and fine horses than
any other incnagerie and circus that has
visited us. Many thanks to James Adder

not on the contrary proverbially been
men selected in the interest of \. Il. or
C.. who were aspirants for higher places,
and whose duty it was (to themselveS)
to pack the Legislature with their ODE
dent and subseryient friends?
How long since we have had a board
of County Commissioners in Cecil
county which was selected because they
were men of affairs, and were recog-
nized as especially qualified business,
man? Without making any invidious
personal reference, have not our local
political managers sought to fill this
important office with men of their own
choosing, who would reward party fav-
orlteS, and not scan accounts too
closely?
In word, for twenty years past have
not with very rare exceptions, all our
local OlllCSS DtSu HliSu w ihSh
who represented the interests of local
political managers, or the leader or
leaders OF some successful faction OF
the Democratic party, rather than the
interests of the taxpayers of the county ?
No candid man will gainsay the truth
of these things, and the independence
of sentiment which every good citizen
will welcome, is but the intelligent rec
ignition of the necessity of the people
acting for themselves, when Its comes
to elcftiHs public officers, however,
much factional leaders may anticipate
and forestall them in making nomina-
tons.
No candid Democrat will deny, that
the Democratic ticket again submitted
to the qualified voters of this county is
primarily factional one, and repre-
sents only a minority of that party.
That the most of the candidates on
that ticket have been selected by the
individual influence of the leaders of
the faction which it represents. That
it was planned and arranged by local
leaders with a view to maintain, by
force of individual obligation, their own
factional ascendency, and as such, can
only appeal for support to those who
are strictly partizans, but whose num-
Der under the welcome growth of indie
pendent sentiment, is rapidly lessening
in this county as in the State generally.
1t is this sentiment only which keeps
in check political corruption and de-
bauchery, and compels all political par
ties to decent respect for public opin-
ion, and secures for all the people bet
ter candidates. No party can afford to
risk indifferent nominations any longer.
The factional leaders of Cecil will dis
cover these truths in the number of
scratched Democratic tickets voted in
the county this fall.
